This Hardware database is intended to be maintained by everyone just like wikipedia. The openspecbase-Team will program the Database backend and the frontend over which the data is entered and queried.
Just the data itself need to be entered by the users themselves.
In the End we have a full-featured Database for nearly every piece of hardware out there.
This database then can be used for e.g. webshops.

Project is frozen currently. There is no time for planing, thouhg I still see the need for such a complete database I imagine...

Planers searched within early planing phase of the openspecbase project. Currently the database (mysql) is being developed.

I'm currently alone with my Idea of developing the opensb database. I'd appreciate it a lot if someone would help me with it.

Feel free to contact me.

I am currently developing the database for storing all the data. The Database itself must be prepared for storing a huge amount of data and and must be able to handle request in a fast way.
As I plan to use MySQL for storage I want to assure referential integrity I read that it's easier to use the INNODB Database type because MyISAM has no embedded function to implement foreign keys.
